Oh. Thank you. I finally understand how to say years in English. I’m sorry if I wrote something wrong here, because I’m learning English. More one time: Thank you.

Hi,

Thank you very much for such valuable information, especially for those like me, who, having been born in Spain, have to struggle with English every day in the hope that one day I will be able to fully understand what I hear and will manage to speak fluently and accurately…
Thank you so much!

@Hadas: “Twenty eleven” and “two thousand eleven” are both acceptable. I hear and use “twenty eleven” more frequently though. It’s the same for 2012: “twenty twelve”.

I’m not a native speaker and I find it very helpful…
How can I read 2011? “twenty eleven”? It doesn’t sound right to me… and 2012?
